Atheists ONLY - Are you less happy now that you are an atheist?
#55
RE: Atheists ONLY - Are you less happy now that you are an atheist?
I'll be honest I got out early-ish (very early 20s) so I have no section of adulthood to compare with as it were. What I can say is that I can't possibly envisage being any happier pretending that there is a man in the sky despite a lack of evidence. Working in the field of science would make such a leap of faith impossible, because it would require the total abandonment of reason. I can certainly say that with certain societal pressures and concerns aside, I am able to find happiness in a great many things, and believing in some bedtime stories from the desert wouldn't be able to enhance those experiences at all.
